I have worked in the field of mental health for over thirty years. This has included inpatient psychiatric hospitals, outpatient counseling clinics, and a private psychotherapy practice. I have a master's degree in social work, a master's degree in business administration with a specialization in health care management, and a doctorate of philosophy degree in clinical sexology. I am certified as a sex therapist by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists. I have received additional training in the techniques of clinical hypnosis and EMDR.

Treatment Philosophy:

My approach can best be described as humanistic and eclectic. I recommend interventions that best meet the specific needs of the unique client. I do not subscribe to a one-size-fits-all model of treatment. I will let you know what I recommend and why I am recommending it for you.

I have intentionally created a practice that welcomes diversity. My clients are each unique individuals with different values, beliefs, and lifestyles. I do not discriminate on the basis of religion, sexual orientation, or lifestyle preferences. I endorse the professionals codes of ethics of the National Association of Social Workers and the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists.
